Hydroponics Startup Barton Breeze raises $800K Pre-Series Funding

Published:

Barton Breeze is an agri-tech startup based in Gurugram, India, that is focused on providing sustainable agriculture solutions and innovative products to consumers. The company was founded in 2018 by Shivendra Singh, Gaurav Rai Chawla, and Dicson Diclause, who are passionate about addressing the challenges faced by the Indian agricultural industry.

The recent pre-Series funding of $8,00,000 marks the first investment for Barton Breeze, and the funds will be used to bring innovative products and value-added offerings to the market. The round was backed by a number of prominent investors, including Rajeev Bairathi (former CEO of Knight Frank), Neeraj Kumar (from DSK Legal), Manish Agarwal and Umang Agarwal (from KTL Automotive), Shishir Poddar (from Tridents group), and two others.

Shivendra Singh, CEO, Barton Breeze, said, “If you’re starting something on your own, you better have a passion for it, because this is hard work – a sustainable agriculture is one which depletes neither the people nor the land.”

The company aims to make nutritious and delicious food accessible and affordable to all customers without compromising on quality or reducing its commitment towards environmentally sustainable agriculture practices. With this latest round of funding, Barton Breeze is looking to expand its operations by introducing 20 new SKUs (stock keeping units) to their FMCG (fast-moving consumer goods) range and growing their farms across the Delhi NCR (National Capital Region) region.

Barton Breeze’s end-to-end chain includes farm development, packaging, and product delivery. The company grows over 40 varieties of crops hydroponically for commercial offerings and has already developed value-added products. The company is committed to environmentally sustainable agriculture practices, which is reflected in their focus on hydroponic farming. Hydroponic farming is a technique that allows crops to be grown without soil, using mineral nutrient solutions in a water solvent. This approach is known to be more efficient and environmentally sustainable than traditional farming techniques.

Barton Breeze’s innovative solutions have the potential to transform the Indian agricultural industry by providing more sustainable and efficient methods for crop production. With their latest funding round, the company is well-positioned to expand its operations and continue to provide innovative products and sustainable agriculture solutions to consumers.
